Cognex makes the following recommendations for cleaning the laser and camera windows:
l Unplug the unit so the laser cannot be enabled.

l Use reagent-grade isopropyl alcohol.
l Use minimal pressure.
ll Use several tissues or swabs.
l Start at the center of each window and spiral out to the edges.
l Rotate the tissue or swab during cleaning so dirt is not dragged across the surface.
Product Service
l Bring any performance issues to the attention of your Cognex sales representative.
l The sensor can only be serviced by a trained Cognex representative. Return the unit to
Cognex for any service or repairs.
l Do not operate the sensor if the enclosure appears damaged.
